Audit the Fed, Then End It! / Politics / Central Banks

By: Dr_Ron_Paul

I have been very pleased with the progress of my legislation, HR 1207, which calls for a complete audit of the Federal Reserve and removes many significant barriers towards transparency of our monetary system. This bill now has nearly 170 cosponsors, with support from both Republicans and Democrats. Senator Bernie Sanders has introduced a companion bill in the Senate S604, which will hopefully begin to gain momentum as well. I am very encouraged to see so many of my colleagues in Congress stand with me for greater transparency in government.

Obama's Road to Economic Ruin and Higher Taxes / Politics / Economic Stimulus

By: Gerard_Jackson

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe inimitable Adam Smith once quipped that "there is a great deal of ruination in a country". But then Mr Smith had never met President Obama whose idea of financial responsibility would make the feckless and cynical Louis XIV look like a nineteenth British treasurer. This ideologue has set the United States on a spending and borrowing binge that is unprecedented in its history and which is impossible to sustain.

MP's Blame Greedy NHS GP's for Expense Claims Abuse / Politics / UK Politics

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleHumiliated MP's across all parties that have been drowned out by the public chorus of outrage and indignation of the abuse of the MP expenses system have repeatedly stated how MP pay has failed to keep pace with that of NHS GP's which is one of the key reasons as to why they have resorted to what amounts to legalised theft from the electorate.

By: Peter_Schiff

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWhen, during the invasion of Iraq, the United States Government issued its famous deck of playing cards with the 52 arch villains of the Iraqi police state, Saddam Hussein's face adorned the Ace of Spades. If the Obama Administration wanted to engage in a similar public relations campaign for the real estate crisis, the top card should be reserved for Alan Greenspan.

The Bank Bailout Bubble – The Bubble to End All Bubbles / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGerald Celente writes: The biggest financial bubble in history is being inflated in plain sight. This is the Mother of All Bubbles, and when it explodes, it will signal the end to the boom/bust cycle that has characterized economic activity throughout the developed world. Either unwilling or unable to call the bubble by its proper name, the media, Washington, and Wall Street describe the stupendous government expenditures on rescue packages, stimulus plans, buyouts, and takeovers as emergency measures needed to salvage the severely damaged economy.

Countries Should Use their Central Bank Reserves to Tame the Speculators / Politics / Global Financial System

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMichael Hudson writes: Yevgeny Primakov explains where Russia’s Neoliberal Model Went Wrong - Last week Izvestiya published an interview with former Premier Yevgeny Primakov, now president of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry. (Johnson’s Russia List published a translation on May 8). The discussion centered on a universal problem – what China and other Asian countries, as well as OPEC and Europe should do with the export surpluses and proceeds mounting up in their central banks from mortgaging or selling off their real estate and industry. Or to put matters in retrospect, what should they have done to avoid the neoliberal monetarist ideology that governments should do nothing at all with these surpluses, not even use them to fuel economic growth.

The Secrets of the Federal Reserve Bank Revealed / Politics / Central Banks

By: Global_Research

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleBob Chapman writes: The Federal Reserve Act was legislated in 1913 to end recessions, panics and depression. Over that almost 100-year period they have been eminently no more successful then their predecessors. The Fed is a private corporation, which guides US monetary policy. Its staff is from Wall Street, banking, and transnational conglomerates and occasionally from academia. Of the 12 Federal Reserve banks the New York bank is the most powerful. The staffing of the Fed at the least is incestuous, because the member banks take part in the staffing, as they filter to the Fed what actions they should take.

Yesterday, the current President of the United States announced triumphantly that his new budget would “save” $17 billion, thanks to the elimination of 121 federal programs.

House of Frauds, Tory Lords of the Manor Expense Claims / Politics / US Politics

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe Telegraph continued with its leaking of outrageous expense claims at tax payers expense, where the reaction from the Speaker of the Commons was to deride the media for publishing the content rather than on seeking to hold MP's to account, which is not so surprising given his own past track record of going on spending binges to the tunes of several hundreds of thousands at tax payers expense beyond his salary.
